FFS. Looks like we are not even going for Rule #1. For the record I define my gaming experiences by their challenge, and how rewarding I feel after completing said challenges. At no point in time do I try to develop this game to be 'fun', and I consider efforts in gaming for the sake of 'fun' at the expense of challenge and difficulty the very thing that has created the instant gratification and forced positive progression we see on major gaming titles today. Which I also feel is a piece of the problem in terms of the disturbing trends in society and culture where relationships have never been more fleeting and commitments have never been more breakable.

In short you and your rules, represent everything I hate.
